Dr. Thorn,
Ingenuus has grown mostly in influence. We hold a significant presence in the houses, specifically Liberty, and we continue to hold influence in Omicron Theta and Omicron Kappa. Sales of our signature power cell has continued to fund our expansion, funding campaigns for our research on many fronts. We've mended relations with Core and Order, despite their trespasses, we move to stop the war in the Omicrons, treating each party equally. Beyond that, we have running deals to support our research at Ames through Port Tacoya, and we've established contact with a number of interesting persons and artificials. Auxesia has supported some of our research endeavors, although only to pre-approved persons.

Aside from Ingenuus, the anomalous structure in Delta, if I remember correctly, has been determined to be an Azurite reactor, which has free-floating Azurite gas for our harvesting methods. We use the element in a large portion of our work, and we continue to find its limits. I'm not sure where you fall in the plane of things, as I've spent my fair share with my head in the dirt to keep my own skin.

I hope I've answered your questions,

Dr. James Erzie
